For the month of January at Peace Youth we'll be learning about identity through our series called: CAGES. 

How often do you hide behind things in your life? Do you feel like you are truly known by anyone? What a tough thing to think about, but for so many of us, we are hiding our true selves and our true identity, stuck in cages. As people, we have these cages that cause us to have fabricated versions of ourselves. We have failures within our everyday lives, shame from our past, expectations of what we are supposed to do or be, and disguises that we put on to mask our true selves. In this 4-week series, CAGES, we’ll discover how to come out of those cages, break down those barriers, and discover our true selves, the people who God fearfully and wonderfully made.
